I am not a huge fan of chocolate but my entire family considers it a food group. Therefore, I try to make healthier recipes and opt for darker varieties of chocolate that have a higher concentration of the goodness of cocoa which has been shown to improve health and lower the risk of heart disease.

This recipe can be ready in a flash and stores in the refrigerator in a tightly covered container for 4 to 5 days.

I am also experimenting with trying to make it a filling for vegan cupcakes topped with chocolate ganache. If it works, I will post the recipe soon.

ENJOY!

I created this recipe completely by accident as I overcooked my broccoli and decided to throw it in the food processor along with the cauliflower. I love the nutty and earthy taste plus the nutritional content is over the top!

This makes an excellent main course or side dish and is satisfying without any bread.

ENJOY!

Growing up my mom always made pignoli cookies during the holidays. They are so delicious and are perfect during the afternoon with a cup of tea or fancy enough to be served for dessert.

I must warn you, however, both the pine nuts and almond paste are a bit pricey. WalMart sells the same almond paste as high-end grocery stores but a few dollars less expensive.

These cookies can be stored, at room temperature, in a tightly sealed container for several days.

ENJOY!
